Joel you truly are unhinged so I am done *NM* random thoughts Send a noteboard - 27/07/2011 01:11:43 AM
He didn't say the man was leftist just that the act seemed very un-Norwegian and with the information he had at the time there was less foundation for him being a right wing radical than there was of a broader political threat. What he was basing that on we don't know because as we normally see with these sort of gotcha stories he is taken out of context. I am personally not a big fan of the man but what he said was not as damning as you claim it to be nor should it be used to attack the network he said it on. Fox can't be the only network held responsible for every word uttered by their guest. Besides that was Friday Joel, when the story was still unfolding and no body knew much about what had happened. But hey don't let that get in they way of you "proving" that the right really is full of evil people who hate life and puppy dogs.

As for the ignorance that spews out Glen Beck mouth, I have never and will never defend that moron and for the record I don't consider him a conservative either just a radical populist who feeds conspiracy theories to the ignorant. If a republican wins in 2012 he will throwing about conspiracy them about him or her.

In full, the quote was:
It's just hard to imagine one shooter could have killed 80 of these children...this kind of behavior is very un-Norwegian to say the least. And the speculation that it’s part of right-wing extremism or something like that, I think that has less of a foundation at this point, than the concern that there is a broader political threat here.

That last part still floors me; we can't let "speculation" (i.e. his proud admission) Breivik's a right-wing extremist distract us from the broader political threat. Yeah, and OJ's still looking for the "real" killer....

By that time (as I recall saying at that time in response to trzaskas insistence that Breivik's far left) we had ample facts to identify him as a far right extremist--unless the right refuses to own any atrocity committed by its most extreme members, in which case even the mans repeated and explicit declaration of himself as a conservative and articulation of well established far right ideology still isn't enough. But, on the subject of who did and didn't read my original post, so much for your argument that it was only a single person on Foxs morning show, not the network (and never mind the morning show spending a whole section on the network defined topic of whether the guy's extreme right).

Dude. Give up: I'm never going to accept you and your political leaders inciting nuts to shoot me or my family down like dogs just for being liberal.
